Journeys of Discovery: Sharing passion of making music at Garth Newel

Garth Newel Music Center, situated in the Allegheny Mountains in Bath County, Virginia, is less than 3.5 hours from Washington D.C., but it’s a world away. Founded in 1973, Garth Newel is home to one of America’s premier chamber quartets. Join the conversation with violinist Teresa Ling, Evelyn Grau (viola), Isaac Melamed (Cello), and Jeanette Fang (piano). Afterwards we’ll visit with Shawn Puller, Executive Director.

In response to COVID-19 issues mandating social distancing, Garth Newel will produce virtual concerts this summer via YouTube live-stream every Sunday from July 5th to Sept 6, 2020.
